simple. She wants her kids to be able to use

ChipThe Chip is the brain of the computer, its very

fast.The chips speed is measured in Hz (hertz) The

higher the Hz the faster it is.This computers chip is 3.2GHz that’s

the computer.The chip in the PC I recommend is the AMD

Athlon II X3 450 3.20GHz. This is definitely a good chip for Helen.

RAM (Random Access Memory)RAM holds the working information. Holds

running programs and holds work in progress.When the power goes out, then RAM is gone.RAM makes things load faster.RAM is measured in bytes.The more bytes the faster.In the computer I have chosen for Helen it has

8GB of DDR3 RAM. 8 GB is 8,000,000,000,000 bytes.

This computer will run very fast on 8GB of RAM, perfect for all of Helens uses.

Data StorageData storage is how much “stuff” you can

store.The more storage you can get the more

things you can save and hold.Data storage is measured in bytes and in

RPM (rotations per minute) how fast the platter inside it turns.

This will be useful for saving emails and information for her business.
